I... don't know, man. That reeks of "Baby survives plane crash - everyone celebrates. (but FUCK the other 299 who died a horrible death, amirite?)"

You're right that baby should feel endless guilt and never celebrate surviving that plane crash. They should lie awake every night, thinking of how "it should have been me". They should spend their days with the weight of 299 destroyed families forever on their head because they survived.

Focus only on death and tragedy, never on life and miraculous survival. Interesting take.

More appropriately

Baby survives terrorist bombing of a plane, everyone should celebrate. Its survival is not only the victory against great odds but also a victory against human indecency and atrocity.

It is IMO victory of the rest 299 too who couldnt survive.
